Did you install MacKeeper?  If you did, remove it:

  • Itunes has encountered a problem and must close..send error report etc.

    I upgraded itunes (not even sure why since my old version was working fine) and now I keep getting the error that "itunes has encountered a problem and must close...". I did try the "msconfig" advice but that did not work. I even tried to use the CD that came with my ipod (March 2005) and the only option I get is to "uninstall" which I hesitate to do because I do not want to loose my itunes library. Does anybody have any other suggestions?? I greatly appreciate any help. I have read through some threads, but some of the "help" links that were inserted are no longer working.
    Thanks!

    I'm having the same problem.
    I updated to 8.1 and it closes as soon as the shuffle is plugged in.
    So I tried disabling auto-sync. No luck
    So I tried loading an older version of iTunes - says I have to have 8.1
    So I tried uninstalling and removing all itunes related files - and reinstalling. Still closing every time I plug in.

  • Can I get help with podcasts?  When I try to open the podcasts, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish.  everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.

    The only other thing I can suggest is to use the Repair option for iTunes.
    Download the iTunes programme (do not uninstall your current iTunes) and then "install" the new copy. At some stage you should see an option to "install" or "Repair". Take the Repair option.
    Once you've done that, if you still have a problem, I don't know what else to suggest, except to search through the discussions to see if anyone else has had the problem and managed to fix it.

    Have you tried working through this Apple article on
    troubleshooting launch failures?

    I have the same problem. Have reloaded and restarted and followed the instructions in the link to no avail.

  • "iTunes has encountered a problem and must close" message opening iTunes?

    Every time I try to open iTunes or Quicktime from my desktop or anywhere else, this message comes up: "iTunes has encountered a problem and must close. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please click here to send an error report." Because of another problem on my computer, I have had to reinstall all my progams recently, including iTunes, but after installing and reinstalling a number of times yesterday, it cannot open. Other programs, like skype, are all working fine. Can someone help me figure out why my system can't open iTunes?

    You can find version 6.0.1 at http://www.oldapps.com/itunes.htm.

    It takes two to tango, maybe it's your recipient that has weak Internet/Cellular connections.

    Did you reset your iPad like this: Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.

  • My iPod now loses my Klondike scores/settings after I "save and exit".  How can I fix this?

    After my last iTunes sync, my iPod loses my Klondike scores/settings after I "save and exit".  How can I fix this?

    I'd try a hard reset, you have nothing to lose.  If that doesn't help and you can shut off the iPod (i.e. the white screen becomes black) you can try to recover it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If that still does not fix the problem and it was Apple that replaced the iPod, return it to them, you have a 90 Day Warranty.  If you replaced the screen yourself,  I have no idea if you did something wrong in the repair or if the replacement screen was defective.  That is the main risk of a self repair.  I doubt whether Apple will do an out-of-warranty repair on an iPod that has been opened, but you can try.

  • ITunes suddenly mentions that my iPhone cannot be synced because it needs 6.55 additional GB, although my phone still has 2 GB free of space. How can I fix this?

    iCloud is off on both my phone and my computer.

    It is saying that the iPod does not have enough free storage to sync all the items yu have selected to sync to the iPod. You need 2.48 GB more free on the iPod. You need either to select less to sync or delete some content form the iPod.

  • When I print on photo paper it only prints in black and white. How can I fix this?

    When I print on photo paper it only prints in black and white. How can I fix this?

    Does it print correctly on plain paper?
    What do you do differently to print on Photo Paper than to print on plain paper?
    iPhoto has no idea of what paper is being printed - that is totally a function of the printer and the print driver supplied with the printer - you need to look at the printer specific options and your printer manual and/or support forums

  • Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    When you switch active Extension Set or enable/disable extension(s), Extension Manager will create/update PluginConfig.txt. InDesign will read this file at launch to determine which extensions (plug-ins) should be loaded or not. If this file doesn't exist, InDesign will load all extensions. Also complicated dependency relationship exists among extensions. I am not sure how these extensions ran into incorrect state.
    If sometime you have to use Extension Manager, you have to reset the state BEFORE launch it. Otherwise Extension Manager will recreate this file based on incorrect database records and file state.
    1. Delete "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db".
    2. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/EM Store/InDesign CS6"
    3. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Mxi Flag/InDesign CS6"
    4. Move all files in "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions/REMOVED" to the parent folder "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions".
